TCT examination

TCT is the abbreviation of liquid-based thin-layer cell detection. TCT is a liquid-based thin-layer cell detection system for detecting cervical cells and cytological classification diagnosis. It is the most advanced cervical cancer cell examination technology in the world. The traditional Pap smear examination of the cervical smear significantly improved the satisfaction of the specimen and the abnormal cell detection rate of the cervix. The detection rate of cervical cancer cells by TCT cervical cancer is 100%. At the same time, some precancerous lesions such as mold, trichomoniasis, virus and chlamydia can be found. Therefore, TCT technology is the most advanced technology applied to the screening of cervical cancer in women. Basic Information Specialist classification: gynecological examination classification: vaginal secretion examination Applicable gender: whether women are fasting: not fasting Tips: Check out the best arrangements for non-menstrual periods. Normal value The detector was tested normally, and no cancerous cells such as epithelial cells, atypical squamous cells, and atypical gland cells were detected. Clinical significance Abnormal results can be detected by TCT for atypical squamous cells (ASC), atypical glandular cells (AGC), squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL), squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL), or squamous intraepithelial lesions ( HSIL) for diagnosis. People who need to be examined suspected cervical cancer patients. Precautions Taboo before inspection 1. Avoid sex life 24 hours before TCT check; 2. Do not rinse the vagina or use vaginal suppositories within 24 to 48 hours before the TCT examination, and do not have a vaginal diagnosis; 3. If there is inflammation, then treat it, then do TCT examination, so as not to affect the diagnosis results; 4. TCT examinations are best scheduled for non-menstrual periods. Requirements for inspection: 1. Please consult an experienced physician. In addition to the sampling position and collection skills, the observation of the naked eye and the accompanying internal diagnosis are also a necessary task. 2, the principle is more clear in the menstruation just check, if there is no menstruation, or abnormal bleeding, secretions have odor can be sampled at any time, some people who receive regular inspections before the scheduled time to find an abnormal phenomenon should also go to the clinic immediately . 3, individual women's TCT examination report has special circumstances, such as atypical squamous cells (ASC), atypical glandular cells (AGC), squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL), squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) or In squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL), women do not have to worry too much. It takes a long time to develop from early lesions of the tumor to malignant tumors. During this period, as long as effective treatment is taken and regular review is performed, the lesions can be further avoided. development of. Inspection process 1. Use a TCT-specific sampler to collect cervical cell samples. 2. Unlike conventional cell smears, the TCT examination involves placing the collector in a vial containing the cell preservation solution for rinsing. 3. Disperse and filter the sample using a fully automated cell detector during TCT examination to reduce the remnants of blood, mucus and inflammatory tissue. 4. Microscopic detection and diagnosis during TCT examination. Not suitable for the crowd Inappropriate crowd: menstruating women.
